Oh, and very NICE avayar you have there.

Thanks. That's the poster from a feature film I was the Director of Photography on. It's in the festival circuit now and just recently took home a bunch of awards, including Best Cinematography at the Buffalo Screams Horror Film Festival 2012 (as well as Best Director, Best Feature and Best Ensemble Cast... yeah it kind of swept!). Scream Queen Debbie Rochon is in it. It also took 1st place Feature Film at the Rhode Island International Horror Film Festival 2012. It's been picked up for distribution so should be available on demand sometime soon!

Nice. And kudos on landing Rochon. I wrote a script about six years ago she was hot on appearing in, but the filmmaker I wrote it for and I had a falling out, so *poof* so much for that.

That's too bad. This biz is tough enough. Having falling outs just makes it that much tougher. I've had a few of my own. But often creative people can be quite... difficult. Debbie was great to work with. I honestly didn't know who she was when we started the film. She was really fantastic as was the rest of the cast. And the Director, Richard Griffin, managed to pull off some pretty awesome movie magic. You can see the trailer for Exhumed here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3VtR9FPmLgIt is a Black and White psychological horror thriller with nods to film noir and Hitchcock.

Re: Introduce Yourself

Hey there.I'm a film student, 22 year old. I also work at a bookstore to get myself through university.I live in Israel, so I don't get to watch many movies in theaters (only a handful of the mainstream flicks are released here). Still, I try to catch up as fast as I can.

I love books, I read a lot. I'm an avid horror fan, and I'd love to chat to people who share that interest.

Re: Introduce Yourself

Hi Daria, welcome to the asylum. I'm the resident monkey, have a complimentary banana!

As far as I know, you are our 1st Israeli member. The only reason I point this out is that I not-semi-officially run Skype chats for HM, and I keep track of how many different countries we have. If you're interested, let me know and I'll get the info to you. We also do "Movie Nights" that are themed so people can see new films and discuss in real time.

Anyhoo, as the others above said, you found a great place for horror. We have published writers, guys who have released films, and a few other side pursuits. If there is any particular sub-genre you're interested in, someone here is probably an expert in it.
